CHAPTER 2: The Backstreet Basketball Game

Howie was the first person to get up the next morning. As he left his hotel room, he took the elevator downstairs and went to the hotel restaurant for breakfast. A table of 4 fans were sitting downstairs eating breakfast, and since Howie is the sweet guy that he is, he asked them if he could join them.
Leigh Anne entered the building at around 11am, and stood at the front desk to check into her hotel room that she reserved awhile back. As Brian entered the lobby, he saw Leigh Anne standing there, and walked past her without talking to her, and sat with D and the girls.

AJ woke up to the noise of the TV that Karine had turned on since she woke up first.
"Good morning baby!" AJ said, as he grinned up at Karine. Karine smiled back at AJ, gave him a good morning kiss, then said good morning to him. Karine got out of bed and had her shower, and AJ came in shortly later and joined her.

In Nick and Taras room, the two of them were still sound asleep, since both of them love to sleep in. Nick woke up first, and looked at the time. 11:10am. Nick streched his one arm, since the other arm was underneath Taras back around her waist, and then dropped his arm around her. He gave her a soft kiss on her forehead, and then she opened her eyes, and let out a little laugh.
"Whats soo funny?" Nick said as he smiled at Tara.
"Your hair tickled my face!" Tara said laughing a bit, and then pulled Nick in for a kiss.
After kissing for about 5 minutes, Nick rested his head on Tara, and they talked about how much they missed eachother, and what happened in the past two months while they were apart. Nick and Tara got out of bed, and then took a bath together.

As Nick and Tara left their room, Karine and AJ were leaving theirs also.
"Good morning guys!" AJ said grinning.
"More like, Good afternoon, almost!" Nick said smiling back at them.
"Yeah, I wonder if they are still serving breakfast" Karine said.
"I hope so! Im hungry!" Tara said. The four of them headed to the elevator, and went downstairs to the restaurant.
"Nick!" Leigh Anne said, as she waved at Nick as he walked in.
"Oh God.." Nick said, he didnt like Leigh Anne at all, and he hated the way that she treated Brian.
"Hi Leigh Anne" Nick said out loud, trying to be nice. As Leigh Anne walked over to Nick, Nick grabbed Tara and walked quickly into the Restaurant.
Brian and Howie were all finished eating with the girls, and were greeting them goodbye. As LeighAnne entered the Restaurant, she walked over to Nick, Tara, Brian and Howie, and started talking to them like nothing had happened, like her and Brian weren't fighting.
Nick and Tara went to sit with AJ and Karine, since they didnt like Leigh Anne, and Kevin joined them also. Poor Brian was stuck talking to Leigh Anne. The two of them started to fight again.
"You always tell me what to do!!! I hate it!! I am my own person, and I dont have to listen to yoU!" Brian yelled.
"You make me treat the fans like crap, you've made some of my BEST friendships go down the drain, and you make me totally UNHAPPY!!!" Brian added. Leigh Anne turned all red with anger and left the room. Brian looked around at all the people who were staring at him.
"Way to go Frick!!!" Nick said.
"Man, that felt good!" Brian said.

Later that afternoon, the Backstreet Boys went to Much Music, where they had an hour long interview. After the interview, the Boys headed out for lunch, without Brian because he went back to the hotel to change, and then they headed to the University of Toronto, to go play some Basketball in the gym. Brian was going to meet them there. Karine and Tara spent the afternoon shopping, and were to meet the boys at the University.
"Hey girls!" Kevin said, as Karine and Tara entered the gym. Tara was wearing a pair of green adidas shorts, and a white tshirt.. and Karine was wearing a pair of black adidas shorts and a white tshirt.
"Taras on Howie, Fricks and my team!!!!!!!!" Nick shouted out loud.
"KARINE is on Kev's and my team!!!!" AJ shouted back. The teams played some BBALL against eachother for about an hour, then were tired out after that.
"Wanna get some pizza? We can go to Pizza Hut or something?" Kevin suggested.
"Sure! My treat!" Brian said, who was feeling in an awefully good mood.

As the van pulled back up to the hotel after supper, the hotel was surrounded with ambulances and police.
Karine, Tara and the boys got out of the van, and made their way past security. They entered the hotel, and went up to their hotel floor, where further chaos was going on. As the elevator door opened, and they stepped onto the top floor, the police were surrounding the room across from Brians. Nick wrapped his arms around Tara, and AJ did the same with Karine. Kev, D, Bri, Nick and Tara, Karine and AJ walked to Brians door, and wanted to see what was happening.
"OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Karine screamed, as she saw the body lying dead on the floor. 4 stabwounds to the chest and the heart, Leigh Anne lay dead in a pool of blood.
